Product catalog summary
Specifications and Overview:
The TSE6-1 is a transformer soft starter designed to switch on single-phase transformers without inrush current. It supports transformers with EI-cut strip-wound cores or toroidal cores and can handle parallel connections of different transformer types. The device is available in three versions: a compact version for currents up to 16 A with an internal thyristor and bypass relay, and versions for higher currents using external thyristors or semiconductor relays.

Key Features:
  • Rated operational voltage: 110 VAC to 500 VAC, 50/60 Hz.
  • Rated operational current: up to 63 A.
  • Remote-On input: 4-32 VDC.
  • LED indication for operation and alarm.
  • Patented soft start procedure with transformer premagnetisation.

Mode of Operation:
The TSE6-1 soft-starts 1-phase transformers and is calibrated for transformers with EI, MI, or UI cores. It can be controlled via direct voltage or a volt-free contact. The device includes a bypass relay to prevent energy loss and automatically detects if a bypass contactor is connected. It monitors main voltage and turns off if voltage limits are exceeded, with LED indicators for status and faults.

Environmental and Housing Specifications:
  • Degree of protection: IP 20.
  • Ambient temperature: 0° to +50°C (32° to 122°F).
  • Housing material: PC/ABS blend, grey color.
  • Dimensions: 120 x 45 x 110 mm for RTH1, 120 x 90 x 110 mm for RTH2 and RTH3.

Thermal and Electrical Specifications:
  • Operational voltage range: 42 to 530 VAC.
  • Non-repetitive peak voltage: 1200 Vp.
  • Power factor at rated voltage: ≥ 0.5.
  • External thyristor modules (RTH1, RTH2, RTH3) are required for currents > 16 A.

Installation and Wiring:
The TSE6-1 can be installed on a DIN-rail and does not require a main switch when using the remote-On input. Fast fuses or circuit breakers with B characteristics are recommended for operational current protection. The device automatically detects bypass contactors and can be configured for automatic or manual reset after faults using internal jumpers.

Conclusion:
The TSE6-1 transformer soft starter is a versatile and efficient solution for managing inrush currents in single-phase transformers, offering flexibility in control and robust protection features.
